Its way more Reese than that, especially considering Reese was in charge of scouting since the 04 draft when they got Eli.

Eli was ALL Accorsi.....Ernie wrote up the scouting report on Eli himself. Lord knows what the hell Reese would have done with that 4th pick....considering some of his recent drafts, I'd imagine he might have had traded down and taken Roy Williams or DeAngelo Hall.

I will give credit to Reese for scouting players, but the picks and free agents were still Accorsi's call.

Also, hiring Coughlin was Ernie's decision, and I think he turned this team around, just as he has everywhere he's gone....the guy can coach.

In my opinion, Accorsi was better than Young and Reese.

After further review..........my numbers stand as called.

Without Coughlin & Manning.....0 Super Bowls for Reese.

"They come to the line of scrimmage and the first thing they do is start looking for me....I know, and they know. When they’d find me they’d start screaming: 56 left ! 56 left!....So there’s this thing I did. After the play was over I’d come up behind them and whisper: don’t worry where I am. I’ll tell you when I get there."

This is a load crap. JR didn't inherit a SB team. You need to put down the crack pipe if you think he did. Without Smith, Boss, Ross, Madison, Alford, Bradshaw, Hixon, DeOssie, McQuarters, and Mitchell we don't win SB42...PERIOD!!!!

In this article JR states "If Victor wasn't a local free agent, we wouldn't have brought him in. Sometimes you get lucky." I just foung this now, but I guess you should apologize to the poster above who said exactly this, and you ridiculed him.

Sigh. So Reese gets no credit for late or undrafted players being good. And doesnt get credit for early picks being good "because everyone drafted early should be good"

You whiny spoiled brats need to quit *****ing and be thankful for this era. Stop misleading these sheep because if it wasn't for what JR has done no SB during this TC era.

No Coughlin, No Manning, No Super Bowl for Reese in 2007.

In 2011, it was much of the same.....actually moreso, because Reese was already falling behind the curve....the offensive line was starting to age, the defense was starting to get soft, and injuries were taking their toll.

If not for a masterful coaching job by Coughlin, and a career season by Eli, they would have NEVER gotten to 9-7. They barely made the playoffs, and then, Ernie's vets once again got the job done in the clutch.

I still think Reese is a good GM, but he's made some lame decisions, and they are now really hurting this team. He doesn't deserve the lion's share of credit for 2007 and 2011, and it looks like he's really crapped the bed with the 2013 roster.

The biggest difference between 2011 and 2013 is that Reese can't keep leaning on Ernie's offensive and defensive lines anymore.
